'The climate alarm is blaring, from every direction,' UN climate chief warns
"Around the world, climate-driven disasters are reaching nightmare proportions, as the costs of humanity’s addiction to burning coal, oil and gas keep spiraling upwards"
"What needs to be done is equally clear: leave #coal, #oil and #gas behind faster, scale up renewables, and protect people where the impacts are already hitting hardest"
Simon Stiell, UN’s Climate Chief

Dangerous and extreme heat will remain across portions of the central U.S. this week, persisting across the mid to lower Mississippi Valley, Gulf Coast, southern Plains and portions of Texas. A heat wave over the Southwest U.S. will intensify late this week and into the weekend. weather.gov

Several major cities are now close enough to running out of water that officials have started planning for the day the taps are switched off, and the list is getting longer every year.

As long as ocean temperatures remain quite a bit above normal… I think we’ll have a few more of these before Summer is done. With a few storms, perhaps maintaining a little more strength than usual esp. at higher latitudes closer to CA
Here is the forecast track for Tropical Storm Elida from the National Hurricane Center. We do NOT expect any wind or rainfall impacts from this system. However, a High Surf Advisory has been issued for high surf and strong rip currents at our beaches from Sun-Tue. Links below ⬇️

Electric mobility continues to expand across the Nordic countries. Norway remains the clear leader with the highest share of electric cars, while Denmark is rapidly catching up in terms of growth.

California saw its second-worst spring snowpack since 1950 this year, but drought has failed to become widespread this summer.
Less than 6% of California is currently in drought, and reservoir levels are at 107% of average.
2022–2024 saw three straight years of near to above average precipitation and snowpack. Despite this spring's record-low snowpack, precipitation in 25/26 was also near normal across much of the state. The state has also yet to see a widespread, severe heatwave this summer.
And this year's building Super El Niño will greatly boost the odds of California seeing another very wet winter in 26/27.

Ten Countries now supply 100-257% of their electricity demand with Wind-Water-Solar
New data show that 10 countries generated 100-257 percent of their grid electricity demand in 2025 from just wind, hydro, geothermal, and solar electricity, or Wind-Water-Solar. The countries were led by Laos, which generated 257 percent of its demand with WWS, and Paraguay, which generated 152% of its demand. Excess electricity is exported to other countries. The main electricity source in these countries is hydropower, but many also have wind, solar, and/or geothermal.
What is more 14 countries generated 95-100 percent of their grid electricity supply with WWS. Among these, Iceland, Albania, Bhutan, Nepal, and Lesotho generated 100% with WWS.
But the staggering result here is that China, which consumes 24% of all world energy, generated 35 percent of its grid electricity in 2025 with WWS. This is an increase from 31.7% in 2024. At that pace, China could provide 100 percent of its grid electricity 24/7/365 by 2045, eliminating all coal and nuclear on its grid. Some say that China’s renewables rise is just meeting new demand. However, China used 1 percent less coal electricity in 2025 than in 2024, so that claim is not correct.
Even with supplying 35 percent of its electricity with WWS, 92 other countries produced more WWS as a percent of all supply than China in 2025.
And although some people claim that increases in clean, renewable electricity increase electricity prices, data say the opposite. More WWS as a percent of grid supply correlates with lower electricity prices worldwide and in the U.S.. On the other hand, more fossils, nuclear, and biomass each correlate with higher prices. The reason is obvious. WWS, unlike the other energy sources, has no fuel cost.

Good early Tuesday morning Bay Area and Central Coast! It's going to be a toasty one. Drink plenty of water, shift outdoor activities to cooler times of the day, and never leave children or pets in unattended vehicles! 📷:@ALERTCalifornia #CAwx

Unsere Kinder und Enkel werden uns bitter verfluchen.
Die #Erderhitzung lässt sich auch durch Nullemissionen nicht zurückdrehen, nur die weitere Erhitzung stoppen.
Denn CO2 bleibt Jahrtausende in der Luft. Kipppunkte kommen näher.
Es wird kein Zurück geben.
